Laura Gruszka
Biography
Laura Gruszka is a literary agent with Writers House. She says: “I’ve had the privilege of working closely with many celebrated authors and illustrators of children’s books under the mentorship of senior agent Rebecca Sherman for over three years; now, I’m excited to build my own list!
I’m looking for authors and illustrators of children’s books for all ages—picture books, chapter books, middle grade, young adult, and graphic novels. I’m also open to adult graphic novels and adult literary fiction.
My priority as a junior agent is uplifting traditionally underrepresented voices and stories in publishing. This applies to every category of books I am looking for. If you are a creator who is part of a marginalized community—regardless of whether you are specifically writing about identity—please send your work my way!”
